In short: An HMO bedroom upgrade refits a letting room so it is more comfortable and easier to let: built-in storage, a proper desk space, better lighting and sockets, sound-reducing doors, durable flooring and fresh decoration. We carry this out across County Tyrone, priced against the HMO rules for Northern Ireland and the council’s own standards.
